  • Hugo

    The world’s fastest framework for building websites.

  • Originally, I just hand-wrote and copy-pasted my HTML all over the place, but I've discovered the wonderful https://gohugo.io/, where you have a folder for the general structure, and a folder for the either Markdown or HTML content. I then put the host repo as a submodule into the public folder where Hugo generates its stuff to and then git add . && git commit -m "update" && git commit push, if I'm lazy, in the submodule to push my new content.
